Lychee Cupcakes

Trying out a new flavour with the basic cupcakes recipe & reduced 50% sugar.

Lychee Cupcakes Recipe : 

Makes 16 - 18 mini cupcakes 

Ingredients : 

18 pieces of canned lychees 

100g butter , soften at room temperature. 

100g self raising flour 

50g brown sugar

2 eggs 

Preparation steps : 

1. Cream butter & sugar until creamy. 

2. Add in the eggs. Mix well. 

3. Add in the flour & mix well. 

4. Line the cupcakes tray with paper liners. Fill up 1/2 to 3/4 full. I used ikea papers liners. Add lychee on each batter, gently pressed lychee into batter. 

5. Baked at preheated oven at 180 degree C for 20 minutes or until cook. 

6. Remove from the oven & leave to cool on the cooling rack. 

Chin's notes: 

1. I did not use the mixer for this cupcake. Reference to Easy vanilla cupcakes.

2. Brown sugar compliments the lychee taste. You can always replace with white sugar. 

3. If you do not have self raising flour, use  all purpose flour + 1 tsp baking powder. 

Bon appétit !
